Louise Fryer presents a week of programmes featuring the 蘑菇短视频 Symphony Orchestra and 蘑菇短视频 Singers in Russian repertoire and music for Holy Week. As part of Radio 3's Baroque Spring, the 蘑菇短视频 Singers perform motets by J S Bach and his predecessors and successors in the post of Cantor at St Thomas's Church in Leipzig. The 蘑菇短视频 Symphony play pieces by Prokofiev and his Russian forefathers and contemporaries.

Today's programme starts with a live concert by the 蘑菇短视频 Symphony Orchestra from their London home at the 蘑菇短视频's Maida Vale studios. Martyn Brabbins conducts a special Holy Week selection of music by two living composers - Scotsman James MacMillan and Russian Sofia Gubaidulina - together with a rarely heard Easter-inspired symphonic poem by the famous Italian conductor (and composer) Victor De Sabata.

Plus the 蘑菇短视频 Singers with music by one of J S Bach's Leipzig predecessors, and a Prokofiev Symphony performed a couple of weeks ago by the 蘑菇短视频 SO.
